Florida Cabinet members have said they were blindsided by Gov. Rick Scott's decision to oust former FDLE Commissioner Gerald Bailey on Dec. 16. "(It) caught a lot of us by surprise," Chief Financial Officer Jeff Atwater told Capitol reporters last month.

Really? It wasn't a complete surprise to Atwater, whose office began lobbying for a top aide to get the FDLE job before the ink was dry on Bailey's letter of "departure" (he refused to use the word resignation).

Emails show that Atwater's chief Cabinet affairs aide, Robert Tornillo, began promoting deputy CFO Jay Etheridge as Bailey's replacement even before Bailey's ouster was publicly known. Bailey has said he got a surprise visit from Scott's former general counsel, Pete Antonacci, at about 11:45 a.m. on Dec. 16. Within minutes, Tornillo had hand-delivered Etheridge's resume to two of Attorney General Pam Bondi's aides on the first floor of the Capitol in Tallahassee -- Kent Perez and Rob Johnson.

Asked to explain the timing, a spokeswoman for Atwater, Ashley Carr, said: "At that time, it was known that the Governor's Office wished to make leadership changes at several agencies, including at FDLE. We offered the credentials of an individual who would make a candidate for consideration when the selection process was to begin."

It was nearly four hours later before Scott's office announced that he had appointed Rick Swearingen as interim FDLE commissioner. Atwater later called for a re-opening of the FDLE appointment, but neither his two Cabinet colleagues nor Scott would agree with him.

Here's Tornillo's email:

From: Tornillo, Robert To: "Kent Perez"; Rob Johnson Subject: FDLE Date: Tuesday, December 16, 2014 11:52:39 AM

I dropped off two folders to Emery containing cover letter/resume for Jay Etheridge. Please call me if you have any questions.

Thanks, rt

Surprise? CFO Jeff Atwater's office knew FDLE chief was doomed

Mexico's embattled attorney general, Jesus Murillo Karam, is leaving the post to take a new cabinet-level job as head of urban and rural development.

The outgoing attorney general has weathered scathing criticism over his handling of the Sept. 26 disappearance of 43 students in southern Guerrero state.

He had also been criticized for being slow to investigate evidence that soldiers killed about 15 criminal suspects after they surrendered in June at a warehouse near the Guerrero border.

President Enrique Pena Nieto's office announced Friday that Murrillo Karam would be sworn in as head of the Department of Rural and Urban Development.

An official who was not authorized to be quoted by name said his replacement as attorney general will be a former senator and electoral-law prosecutor, Arely Gomez.

Murillo Karam, a former governor and legislator, became famous for an off-the-cuff comment at a news conference in November about the case of the 43 students.

He abruptly signaled an end to questions, turning away from reporters and saying, "Ya me canse," which means "Enough, I'm tired."

The phrase was deemed offensive for parents of the missing students who, five months later, still have no concrete information on what happened to their sons.

Police in the Guerrero city of Iguala detained the 43 and allegedly turned them over to a drug gang known as Guerreros Unidos. Murrillo Karam claimed his investigations indicated the gang had killed the young men, burned their bodies and dumped the charred bone fragments and teeth into a nearby river.

However, a DNA match has been found among the fragments for only one of the 43; a final round of tests is still being carried out by a lab in Innsbruck, Austria, but is likely to destroy the remainder of the fragments.

Mexico to Replace Embattled Attorney General

TOPEKA The transformation of the homes for the annual Child Care Aware of Eastern Kansas Designers Showhouse has involved many moving parts, including the budget that is set for the design of the house.

Reva Wywadis, executive director of Child Care Aware, has been involved in the annual grassroots fundraiser for several years and said its a continuous process to educate the public about how the designer showhouse comes about each year. She said its a common misconception that the homeowners get their house remodeled a no cost to them.

We work with the homeowner and they give the designer an allowance for each space, said Reva Wywadis, executive director of Child Care Aware. The homeowner is responsible for any plumbing, heating, electrical changes, etc. That investment is always made by the homeowner.

Another myth, Wywadis said, is that the designers have free reign who redecorate each room any way they want to and that the homeowner gets very little input in the design process.

The designer still has to get their plan (for each room) approved, she said. The homeowner is always in control of the designers plan. They approve or might ask for some changes but the homeowner is always in control of this process.

The homeowner will set a budget for each room that will be remodeled or redecorated, Wywadis said. From there, each designer then figures out what he or she can do in that space with the money they are given by the homeowner.

Because each rooms budget is usually lower than what the designer ends up doing with the space, the designer will ask other vendors to donate additional labor and materials and will often be recognized in the showhouses publicity pieces.

The goal is to stretch their budget, Wywadis said. They often do to a fabulous job of stretching that budget.

Wywadis said coordinating the design of the showhouse, including this years home, the Washburn University presidents residence, takes someone with knowledge and connections in the design community. She said for the past six years, Topeka interior designer Jan Hutt has filled that role so that Wywadis doesnt have to be as hands-on during the busy showhouse season each spring.

It was just so necessary because the showhouse took me out of my area of expertise, Wywadis said. Jan is on-site a lot, making sure everyone is on schedule. Shes our liaison between our agency and all of the designers.
